Westminster

The first Limited Ten from my home city. London has so many iconic landmarks but maybe the most famous is this. Westminster. The Houses of Parliament, The Elizabeth Tower and Big Ben along side Westminster Bridge and The River Thames. Does anything say London more than this view.

Fantômes

I’m kicking my Limited Ten editions off again with this beautiful image of The Eiffel Tower. One of the last places I travels to before the global pandemic rocked the world.

Photography hasn’t really happened this year for me. Mainly due to COVID I’ve not had a real chance of getting out with the camera. Travel is a big part of my photography and not being to or wanting to travel with the current restrictions means I haven’t done so for much longer than I’d have liked.

N-Photo

Last month I was the lead feature in N-Photo magazine. It was a 12 page feature on fine art architecture with many of my images included.

St Mark’s

I finished last year off with a visit to Venice. It’s a wonderful city and great for photography. While there they had the highest tide for 50 years, causing the biggest flood the city has seen for the same amount of time. St Mark’s square, the lowest point in Venice, gets Acqua Alta at anything over a tide of 90cm. On 12th November Venice saw tides of 187cm. Along with the extremely high tide there was also some strong winds and rain. These together caused some devastating damage to Venice, with 90% of it under water. All shops, restaurants and homes were flooded. Locals and tourists were left stranded. The flooding was really that bad.

NYC

Firstly let me apologise for the delay in this months The Limited Ten. I’ve had computer issues followed by problems with Lightroom.
This month’s The Limited Ten print is a photo from a trip earlier in the year to New York.
It’s a classic view that I can’t get enough of. New York City has some amazing architecture creating one of the best skylines in the world. An area and a City that I would love to spend more time in photographing.

Coned Off

This month’s The Limited Ten print is from a recent trip to Valencia.
I was looking to capture some of the detail that’s in the wonderful architecture at The City of Arts and Sciences.
Santiago Calatrava, the architect behind the buildings in this area, puts so much thought into the small details of his designs. This was the inspiration behind getting more detailed photographs of the area than the whole of the buildings.

I’m delighted to announce that I have won Fujiholics Black and White Photographer Of The Year.

My image “Out Of The Glow” won the black and white section of this annual competition.

The Guggenheim

Printing our work is the final part of the images journey and I believe most photographers are guilty of not printing enough. Photographs are shared online over many social networking sites but very few are often seen in print. Recently I’ve been growing my own collection of prints by other artists. It’s a great way of really appreciating a photograph and the work that’s gone into it. It can end up being expensive purchasing all these photographers’ prints and even printing your own work. This is why I’ve decided to offer one print a month at a very discounted price.

In-between Posts

When I first took up photography there were two places I knew of to post photos and see other photographers work. One was a forum that I found helpful to get critique and advice from the other was Flickr.
